In our latest series, I Am Animal Health, colleagues from around the world share their stories that exemplify the great work we do — and remind us why we strive to be the best animal health company in the world. Here, we feature Dr. Mark Pelham, senior professional services veterinarian, U.S. Companion Animal.

Dr. Mark Pelham is a vet – in both senses of the word. As both a veterinarian and a United States Army veteran, Dr. Pelham says he is proud of the work he and his teams have done.

“I love utilizing my degree,” he says. “From working with my professional service veterinarian and my territory manager as a practitioner…I know what their daily routines are like and what they’re going through on a day-to-day basis. Our professional relationship is strong, and we have an important bond because I’ve been in their shoes before.”
